Los días 9 y 10 de diciembre se celebrará la segunda edición de la jornada Univercity en Bilbao AS Fabrik. La jornada, organizada desde el grado en Humanidades Digitales Globales (HDG), se desarrollará bajo el lema Organize locally to respond globally y contará entre otros y otras con la presencia de Otto Scharmer, creador de la teoría U. La confencerencia de Otto Scharmer se ofrecerá online: inscribirse a al conferencia.

 

En un mundo marcado por la centralidad de las ciudades y la creciente urbanización, el seminario UniverCity pretende ofrecer una plaza para reflexionar sobre la relación de las universidades con su entorno. UniverCity nace como una iniciativa de estudio del potencial educativo de las ciudades, con el objetivo de tejer complicidades entre la academia, los agentes sociales y los poderes públicos y explorar vías de innovación social, contando para ello desde su primera edición con participación local e internacional.

La segunda edición de UniverCity viene marcada por varias crisis superpuestas que se han unido a la pandemia de COVID: el cambio climático, las migraciones, la crisis del comercio global, la violencia contra las mujeres y los crecientes brotes de homofobia, las tensiones raciales, la debilidad de la democracia y las emergencias humanitarias han convulsionado nuestra sociedad. Esta segunda edición del seminario internacional UniverCity quiere reflexionar sobre todo ello bajo el lema Organize Locally to Respond Globally. Para ello, contará con representantes de siete organizaciones locales e internacionales (entre los que destaca Otto Scharmer, creador de la Teoría U y director del Presencing Institute del MIT) que abordan el cambio social desde una perspectiva sistémica. El seminario quiere propiciar una conversación sobre posibles alternativas que parten de lo local para incidir en la crisis global. A lo largo del seminario se intercambiarán ideas clave entre estudiantes del grado en Humanidades Digitales Globales de Mondragon Unibertsitatea, representantes del laboratorio urbano de Bilbao AS Fabrik y los expertos invitados.
